Tobacco Users

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in Canada and smoking can also increase the risk of developing other types of cancer including to the mouth, nose and throat. Smokeless tobacco like chew and snuff can also increase the risk of developing cancer. The best way to cut back or quit is through support and medication. By combining the two, you triple your chance of success.
